The screws were tig welded in place for the engines absolute security, but
note, the TB is _not_ 52mm :)

I've seen local trucks (mostly) stock run with my TBs and they work great....
in fact, customers send me lots of good, positive feedback.
I think that the power loss is b/c of the headers, but it might only be in
certain situations (diff. alt levels, etc) that the truck would start to run
lean b/c of headers. I've yet to see it personally, but it's definately odd.
<< Im hoping the
manifold mods (beyond just fixing my leak) fit that bill. >>
I'm about to do a prototype manifold (welded, shortened plenum, etc) for a
customer, with a matching Phenolic spacer, all designed to match my TB....
should work great in theory, we'll see...
what kind of mods are you planning?
